This job should be done with the engine cold (after sitting at least three hours). Place a metal container, rags or newspapers under the filter to catch spilled fuel. For carbureted models, the fuel filter is located under the vehicle, near the gas tank or in the engine compartment. If the vehicle must be raised to change the filter, be sure to support it safely on jackstands! To replace the filter, release the clamps and slide them down the hoses, past the fittings on the filter. Carefully twist and pull on the hoses to separate them from the filter. If the hoses are in bad shape, now would be a good time to replace them with new ones. Slide off the old clamps and install new ones. Pull the filter out of the clip and install the new one, then hook up the hoses and reposition the clamps. Note that the arrow on the filter must point in the direction of fuel flow (toward the carburetor). Start the engine and check carefully for leaks at the filter hose connections. For fuel-injected models, loosen the banjo bolts on both ends of the fuel filter with a flare nut wrench. Disconnect both lines. Remove both bracket bolts and detach the old filter and the filter support bracket. Remove the filter clamp bolt and separate the old filter from the bracket. Note that the inlet and outlet lines are clearly labeled and that the flanged end of the filter faces down. Install the new filter and bracket assembly and tighten the bracket bolts securely. Make sure that the new filter is installed flanged end down. Using the new sealing washers provided by the filter manufacturer, install the inlet and outlet banjo bolts and tighten them to the specified torque. The remainder of installation is the reverse of the removal.
